review:
'Batman: The Dark Knight: Master Race'written by Frank Miller and Brian Azzarello with art by Klaus Janson, Andy Kubert and others includes all nine main issues as well as the nine tie-in issue. At 376 pages, it's a lot of comic, but is it any good?

Following up after The two previous Dark Knight series, this time around Carrie (the Robin from the first series) is all grown up and patrolling Gotham dressed as Batman, because apparently Batman is dead, but this feels like a feint. When a group of Kryptonians threatens the planet, it's going to take more than Carrie and an aging Bruce Wayne to stop them.

This is not strictly a Batman story. It includes members of the Justice League and others, but at it's core, it follows the Batman characters.

I own and love the original Dark Knight. I was less crazy about the odd second part. This one loses some of the darkness and hyperviolence and even feels like it ends on a note of hope. It's a different feeling for this series, but I liked it quite a bit.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
